One Piece is currently in the works on Season 2 of the live-action series with Netflix, and the editor behind it has offered an update on how it’s all coming together. One Piece made its debut with Netflix last year with a brand new take on Eiichiro Oda’s original manga franchise, and was such a massive hit with the streaming service that it was no surprise to see that a second season was already confirmed. With production on the new episodes beginning in full earlier this Summer, now it’s just a matter of waiting to see when the new episodes will actually hit.

Speaking with Temple of Geek during San Diego Comic-Con 2024, Netflix’s One Piece editor Eric Litman revealed that editing on the new season has already began as the team is getting together footage to cut but can’t tease too much about the footage itself, “I’m constantly cutting footage. I’m cutting scenes while they’re shooting stuff. We’re always talking about what’s being shot…Fortunately, with One Piece – and also Agents of Shield – everything always worked! Everything was great. The footage, especially with One Piece, is just next level.”
